    I'm not too keen. Having seen most of the moulds revealed already, can anyone be too excited? I doubt pictures will improve my initial impressions of them. Goldbug makes a bit more sense than Bumblebee. More creepier.

    I'm joining the club but I doubt I'm that excited about this set. I'll probably get them... probably

    I'm mildly interested.

    How would one go about getting the set without having to go through ebay or going overseas?

    For 285 to club members, 335 to non-members, you can get the set. Download the Brochure PDF from the website and the package I'm referring to is called the "Iacon Package" (bottom left of page 2)

    Ooooh. 2nd bagged set available to Iacon registrations as well. Only 200 available on 1st come, 1st serve basis. Looks like you don't need Saintly, Iceburn.

    EDIT: Sorry, this is a bit redundant as was mentioned by STL, but still worth adding that this is available to non-attendees.

    you'd have to join the club or pay a higher price for the set through the club. You'll need a credit card and have to fax the registration in.

    This years set won't fly as quickly as last years did. Not a chance.

    In addition, it does look like the rumours on TFW 2005 earlier on were correct:

    They were

    [quote:2db55tcx]classic optimus prime have paint purple and black
    cybertron crosswise have paint white....make new jazz head
    cybertron hotshot have paint gold and black....and new goldbug head
    classic grimlock have paint black
    cybertron starscraem have paint white and red

    they come in big box with small toy[/quote:2db55tcx]

    The small toy I guess was the mini-con.
    It makes sense to be Cybertron Starscream too since that's the best way to fit in the mini-con.

    The attendee exclusives, you'll just have to get them through eBay even if you're a member, I think. THat's why they're attendee.

    Unless Griffin actually is able to get us the non-attendee figures.

    I think it's a safe bet we'll have:
    - Megatron

    The others will likely be a bunch of Decepticons. Likely the seekers and Soundwave. But whose moulds, I don't know. I'd love to seek the Decepticon seekers though.

    Hmm. Not very excited... but I'll still think about getting them
